Anyone else remember Mayor Greg Nickels’ 2005 [10 year plan to end homelessness](https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/fewer-shelter-beds-to-get-city-funding-advocates-troubled/)?
Or Mayor McGinn’s [6 year plan to end homelessness](https://www.kiro7.com/news/mcginn-plans-end-homelessness-6-year-plan/246752552/)?
Or Mayor Murray’s 2015 [declaration of a civil state of emergency on homelessness](https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/mayor-county-exec-declare-state-of-emergency-over-homelessness/#:~:text=By%20declaring%20a%20state%20of,calamities%20caused%20by%20Mother%20Nature)?
I’m sure Bruce’s [Homeless Action Plan](https://seattle.gov/mayor/one-seattle-initiatives/homelessness-action-plan) will do the trick this time.
Seriously. You’re homeless, you park your vehicle or pitch a tent somewhere in public spaces, but you generally want to be left alone. Don’t want to be hassled. So any logical person would think, well, then I better keep a low profile, discard my trash properly, be reasonably quiet and “clean” then the people in the area that might normally complain or take issue with me might say, well damn, their RV might be unsightly and I might be a little concerned about the potential for crime but so far they seem to have kept to themselves and not caused any issues. But noooooooooooo……………..
…………… these creeps go out of their way to be the dirtiest, filthiest, most problematic assholes they can possibly be. Leaving a tornado of destruction in their path each and every time. Without fail. It’s amazing how people want to have compassion for people that have zero compassion for anyone else. It’s like they go out of their way to be as destructive as they can possibly be when they really don’t have to be that way. No chill whatsoever.
Remember the Hobo Code: always leave your campsite looking worse than you found it!
Report using The Find It Fix It app and the city will come out and clean it up within a day or two. I use it all the time for illegal dumping that I see around.
It’s not that they are homeless, it’s what they DO when they’re homeless.
These are not homeless but criminals. The homeless RV’s or campers I see locally that keep a clean house. I leave alone. The rest use their ‘homelessness’ as a blanket for a drug den, chop shop, pimp house. Report these people as soon as possible.
There’s a food bank in my neighborhood. I often pass by and I see a lot of homeless who line up for the free food and vegetables/fruits. They end up trashing the sidewalks with it. Just like what’s shown in the picture you shared. I just don’t get it.
Garbage human being. Don’t care what kind of ‘down on your luck’ you might be. Get the fuck out of Seattle. A friend who works near there had to walk by that filth and all its garbage every day for weeks. People who have a bleeding heart for this nonsense need to leave Seattle too, or this will never change. It’s not compassion to tolerate this crap.
Make sure your tabs aren’t expired because the police and city are more concerned with cheaper methods of meeting their budget.
These bums are irredeemable. And likely, physiologically so, as their brains are fried from the hard drugs they’ve been doing. To blame it on “mental illness” is to pretend that they had no agency whatsoever. This is what they chose, and this is how they behave. Of course we’re all out of fucks to give. Just make them go away so that our children can be safe.
And they wonder why people don’t give them respect.
Junkies have more rights than tax paying citizens in Seattle
That’s what drug addict homeless *do.* And what Seattle Progressives, the Green Jacket Lady brigade, enable and allow every time you won’t speak up or get active or confront a politician or literally do anything to fix the problem your own tolerance for crime caused.
I saw that on LCW. I want services for people seeking help, not making messes and who don’t care.
My dog went after a squirrel and wrapped his leash around a homeless RV… I was across the street so I dropped the leash and had to go retrieve it and the dog… the leash had dragged through the mud behind the trailer… when I picked it up it smelled like shit… I believe they were shitting there. This is just two days ago right by a cute farm in King Co. I have neighbors that moved away due to this. I feel like I pay waaaay too much to live here… with that around the corner my taxes increased $400 a month last year.
This is exactly why I hate homeless people.
This can’t be accurate. I was assured that all the trash was from motorists throwing crap out of their cars…
Seriously though, this is the norm. As in 99.999999999% of these “encampments” – big and small – turn into this. I didn’t say 100%, because I know of at least one dude who I have seen on many occasions out literally sweeping around his area and on the streets around him. Not that I think he should be there anyways. But he at least seems to have some semblance of responsibility and doesn’t seem to always look like he just woke up in a gutter after a heroin/fentanyl induced night of debauchery.
I genuinely hate the people who trash our once beautiful city
That’s terrible. Did you report it on Find it Fix it?
These are the throw away people. They have nothing, are treated like nothing and after a while, feel nothing. More and more every year, some with small children and babies they survive on the scraps of society. I don’t understand how this is not like a natural disaster where the National Guard would be deployed, like a flood or hurricane. But callousness and inaction will only compound the problem. Do you think it will get better miraculously?
Call the what most of them are: fenty campers. They are All throughout my neighborhood, doing the same trashing and stealing anything useful not locked down.
Keep pitting children/environment against these assholes.
Its one of the few ways it makes these dumbasses think for a second about how allowing this isn’t cool when their worlds collide like this.
You’re lucky that’s all he dumped. We had a guy park his RV in the park by our house. Was there for a week, police finally came out and gave him 24 hours to move.
He dumped his trash and holding tank (his toilet tank) and left. The city didn’t have the budget to clean up the human waste so they just closed the park for a couple months until they got it figured out.
I recall seeing two people sitting on a bus throw their trash (food containers and spoons) out the back door right before it closed. That’s when I realized they were wearing backpacks and possibly living on the public transit. I thought their behavior was disgusting, but also wondered if it was a purposeful F U to the rest of society.
A fair sentiment- being homeless doesn’t mean you can destroy things
Seattle’s problem isn’t a homeless problem, it’s a liberal “junkies have rights” problem. There is no amount of services you can throw at these pieces of crap that will change that. The first question we should be asking them, “did you become homeless in seattle?” No, then fuck off back to where you came from.
Yes but just imagine how awful it would be if this were against the law and these people had to answer for their actions.
Downvote me to hell but if these people had the cognitive processing ability to not leave this place like this, they won’t be homeless in the first place.
Scum of the earth.
Dang and they left that nice tarp. You sure they’re not coming back after a trip to the plug?
Yes they are. We’re told these dirtbags are deserving of our respect.Well that’s a two way street
#notallhobos
And that’s what it boils down to disrespectful pieces of shit. Makes it hard to have any sympathy for any of them when they leave wherever they inhabit looking like this.
This is homelessness in one picture.
I live in downtown Chicago near Goldcoast. There is an older dude that would sleep on the park benches at night, then just chill there most of the day. He sat up straight, kept as clean as I think he could, and kept his belongings tidy. Anytime someone would speak with him, he was super cool. None of the women that jogged the track ever seemed worried about him. Just a normal dude for the most part. Wish everyone could be so cool.
Yup. Some people are homeless because they fell on hard times. Others are homeless because they are pieces of shit who don’t care about anyone, including themselves
Seattle votes for this every cycle. It’s not going away…
I had a homeless guys RV near my house pumping raw sewage into the street
